McNabb has one year left on his contract and isn't likely to return to Philly after 2010. He'll hold the Raiders hostage or walk.
So either way, the Raiders are looking at two players holding them hostage. McNabb needs a job and is 34 years old. Asomugha is 28 years old and would be closer to his home in the South. He'd also be closer to a major media market (New York) and as sharp as he is, he's likely to move to broadcasting after he retires.
The bottom line is that the Raiders could make the trade and still only have McNabb for a year AND lose maybe the best cornerback in the game.

With the situation as it is it looks like a win for Oakland IMO McNabb has plenty of ball left in him as in 4 to 5 years and with the sack of shit Russell redefining the term bust Davis will blow McNabb to keep him. Not a bad deal considering the train wreck the Raiders have become~
